Jay Armstrong Johnson, who wowed Broadway as one of the three leads in On the Town, is heading back home to Fort Worth to help out the kids at Kids Who Care, where the Fort Worth native got his early training. He will perform alongside the kids in Look Up, an original musical, on Friday.

His next project is a bit more high profile. He is scheduled to headline in a solo concert about his life and career told through music for a week in February at the Broadway cabaret 54 Below.
